[edit] Nic's Thug
Johnny was first introduced as a subordinate to Nic, a Lakehurst student and J. T. Yorke's rival. He helped beat up Toby when J.T. failed to show up for a rumble.
[edit] J.T.'s Death
In the episode Rock This Town, Johnny and his friend Drake showed up at Emma Nelson's house for Liberty's party. Emma asks them to leave if they aren't friends with Liberty, Spinner says if they are here for trouble they better leave but Manny Santos calms problems down by mentioning the 'Increase The Peace' policy that they made with Lakehurst ~ which Johnny agrees they are there for. They later perform a prank on Derek Haig which sprays beer on Jay Hogart. After being thrown out by Jay Hogart and Spinner Mason, they found J.T.'s car and while Johnny urinated on it, J.T. appeared, looking for Liberty. After a small exchange, Drake Lempke stabs J.T., and both he and Johnny run off. Liberty sees them running off and finds J.T. on the ground. Liberty identifies the culprits to the police and Damian gives the police Johnny and Drake's names.

[edit] Attending Degrassi
After Lakehurst burns down, Johnny begins to attend Degrassi with a number of other students, including Sav, Holly J. Sinclair, Jane V., and Anya. He will also become involved in a fierce rivalry with Spinner Mason.
[edit] Bothering Toby
Johnny and his friends begin to bother Toby. He starts off by calling him a "Digi Weiner" after hearing Toby and Mr. Simpson talking about computers. At the end of the same day, he is stopped by Toby, who he reconginzes as the kid he beat up with Nic. He offers a truce which Toby does not take but rather says "You watched your friend stab my friend to death." Johnny then leaves. Later, Toby made a podcast for the school newspaper The Grapevine stating how much he hates Lakehurst. Johnny, as well as the rest of the Lakehurst student body, hears the podcast. Later, Toby goes to a pool bar where Johnny is and offers to take up on the truce. Johnny tells him the truce is off the table because of the podcast. Johnny is seen in later episodes trying to shove Toby's face into food and throwing around his scarf. This leads to the start of the Spinner/Johnny Rivalry.
[edit] Rivalry With Spinner
Johnny is seen picking on Toby in the lunch room, where Spinner intevenes. He tells them to stop acting like a bunch of monkeys. Johnny tells him that they'll get right on that and turns around to walk away. He then turns back and throws a punch which is caught by Spinner. Spinner bends his hand back enough to show Johnny was in pain. Johnny leaves. Later, after Spinner finds out he has cancer, Johnny is seen picking on Toby again. Spinner goes and confronts Johnny who says, "What are you gonna do about it? Sing Kumbaya?" Spinner replies "Not this time" and hits Johnny with two punches. Johnny falls to the ground. As Spinner walks away, Johnny gets up to go after him. Sometime later Spinner tries to make amends with Johnny, who doesn't accept stating that he is now famous because "When dudes square off people wanna watch." Later that evening Johnny is beaten within an inch of his life by Spinner in a back alley. He is later mentioned to have received detention with Spinner due to their filmed fights.
